🇺🇸 New Spot in Salt Lake City｜NY-Style Pizza 🍕

"A portion for one" is such an urban phrase—hinting at loneliness, self-sufficiency, and a touch of careful budgeting. The fact that the needs of solo living can be thoughtfully met is one of the charms of a big city. 🏙️💫 When Italian 🇮🇹 immigrants arrived in the New World, they brought more than just their accents—they brought pizza, especially Neapolitan Pizza. But New Yorkers couldn’t always afford a whole pie, so they asked to pay less for just a slice. That’s how the iconic "by the slice" tradition began 🍕, and it’s still going strong today. It reminds me of the half-ounce grain tickets that were unique to old Shanghai—just enough to buy one fried dough stick for breakfast, skewered on chopsticks to dip in soy milk or pair with rice porition. It was also perfect for grabbing a small mooncake for a quick treat… 🥢🍚 In the North, where people often buy in bulk to enjoy slowly, this might seem amusingly frugal. Every time an international chain opens in Utah, I joke that our town is becoming more global—but it always felt like polite small talk. Then I walked into this new pizzeria and saw pizza sold by the slice. For the very first time, I felt a real urban vibe here. 🌆❤️ The owner told me that their pastrami, corned beef, mustard, and other ingredients are shipped directly from New York 🗽, promising an authentic Big Apple flavor. As I was about to leave, he rushed out from the kitchen and warmly insisted I try their new cheesecake 🍰. “It’s the smoothest cheesecake you can find here. It’s from New York!” With an Italian 👌 hand gesture—you know the one—that proud “from New York” stirred my own hometown pride and empathy. 🍕 3 Meat Stromboli Their dough is on point—soft yet chewy. Stromboli is a lot like our Chinese jianbing wrap. This one is stuffed with three types of ham and generous cheese. Huge and deeply satisfying—carb lovers will be thrilled! 🥓🧀🔥 🥖 Garlic Knots Crispy on the outside, soft and pull-apart on the inside, with a rich garlic aroma. 🍰 Cheesecake Just as the owner said—incredibly smooth. It’s a classic American-style cheesecake through and through. They also offer pizzas with various toppings, meat-packed sandwiches, cold sides, and desserts.
